5 largest cities in Bulgaria: Sofia, Plovdiv, Varna, Burgas, and Ruse
The population of the largest city: 1,152,556- Sofia
“Rank size rule” the estimated size of each of the next four largest cities: 576,278, 384,185, 288,139, 230,511
Actual populations of the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, & 5th largest cities: 340,494, 312,770, 195,966, 148,742
A well-developed paragraph defending to what extent the “rank size rule” is proven valid or invalid based upon the populations of this country’s five largest cities: The population of Bulgaria isn't exactly following the rank size rule at the beginning but towards the end it does. The rank size rule is the distribution of city sizes working in a regular and common way. The estimations are not remotely close in the second city population, but the rest of them are a little closer. The rule is invalid in this sense because the populations seem to be off by a more dramatic number than expected.
